Cooking up a personal request. It always fills me with love and joy creating something with the aspirations of making life a little bit more enjoyable for someone else.

Just trying to get back to, for the people. I see so much out there that's heartbreaking, people just trying to make it in a world with the odds stacked against them. It's not supposed to be about who can get further ahead, stepping on one another, or taking advantage of others. That's what has created this chaotic world but it really doesn't take much to be genuine. I'm not worried about looking soft or easily taken advantage of Bec I have a great deal of heavy hitters covering my back while I do my part. I wouldn't be able to do what I do if I sank in all the chaos. I always see blooming flowers and sunshine even in the darkest days 😍😍

There's a spark that resides in all of us. Do what you love and be who you're meant to be. Love with all your heart and let it guide you through your next step. This can, also be called Kundalini energy. It's a love that burns deep and can't be extinguished. Nobody can replace it but only dream to awaken it themselves sometimes but once it's opened, hold on because boy is it a Ride.

Well, last night didn't turn out like I planned. I planned on taking a 30 minute break just to get off my feet after returning from another university doctor appointment but fell asleep instead πŸ™„. 11 hours later I woke up and decided to get a few more things worked on before going into work. Too much time wasted sleeping when there's so much preparation to get done just to start the fun. Who am I kidding, I mix the fun in. Loving the herbed salt that made shyene mouth water to be disappointed that she wasn't smelling garlic noodles being made.🀣🀣🀣😍😍🀩🀩

The night has been long and very eventful. Who knew that I'd be working on a subject I wasn't the best at in highschool, or quite frankly, had zero interest in. I'd be referring to chemistry and science. Ok, maybe that's not πŸ’― percent true. Some of the objectives in school were interesting but not enough to keep my attention. It seems as though the attributes of my life that I avoided like the plague have commenced to become my partners in crime.

Tonight, late into the sleepy hour, I have worked on trying even more herbs from my never ending garden and starting my tincture experiments. They have been just that, EXPERIMENTS. I have learned so much about density, scales, ingredient differences, patience, and how smart and quick calculating Shyene is. I'm grateful that I did purchase ALMOST enough supplies to do as necessary. That's where the experiment has come into play. I have a draw to brandy, oddly enough, but that is an ingredient I don't have enough of. At this point, the perfect storm is a brewing lol. It's not a concoction I intend on keeping but will be observing in many ways. Unfortunately, with the level of knowledge or awareness, I will be discarding that particular Frankenstein batch. I'll admit, it has been interesting and I can't wait to see what becomes of it. It just really saddens me to think of the money I feel I'm wasting. That being said, I'll probably turn that into some kind of spray for insects or something outside.

What I am doing, is and is not a science. There's formulations, trials and errors, calculations and a lot of miscalcutions. It's not a total bomber, in my opinion. I'm learning what works and what doesn't. It's a good thing that I don't have the ambition to give up. When I really care about something, it's hard to walk away. Even with the mishaps, it's still fun. Learning what works and what doesn't. Definitely, what to avoid and how to try to do correctly next time. I'll say, I'm learning all this faster than what I do at work(sorry to my work peeps). All in all, this has been so entertaining and there's no way but up from here, even though it may be slow. Slow and intentional is the way to go.

Thank you shy for helping your tired momma in getting another experiment on it's way to some kind of success. The twins have been troopers helping me collect in Michigan's I'm coming for your harvest freezes. I'm just waiting for Alexis Jean to get rested up from her cross country adventures so I can torture her a little with herbal preparations. Have a good night to anyone still up and going. I have an oil preparation still calling my name.

Another long night coming up 😍🀩🀩

There's so much more to That Country Outpost than just concoctions with flowers and herbs. Did you know we offer handmade jewelry, pendulums, pens, life counseling, mentorship, Reiki, animal communication, mediumship and so much more. We are also associated with The Tack shack with Alexis Jean providing for your equine needs. In the process of cosmetologist learning/licensing with some amazing updos already underway in practice.

Yes, on top of me being a mom and a pharmacy technician, we keep it very busy around here. I'm loving the education I'm receiving to becoming a registered herbalist but it warms my heart supporting my children and their aspirations. That's why being an outpost is so fitting. There's even a very high potential to be home to a veterinarian. It's the love and support of our community that makes all this possible and greatly appreciated.
